“Miss Yu, long time no see.” The surprised look in Yu Ke’er’s eyes caught Su Yu’s attention. Yu Ke’er was about the same age as him, but her Qi refinement had already reached the eighth level, and she was also a top-tier first-level Beast Tamer.
The young lady of the Yu Family from Heiyan Mountain certainly lived up to her Beast Taming lineage.
Yu Ke’er wrinkled her nose, looking at Su Yu for a moment: “You’re actually a top-tier first-level Alchemist?”
Su Yu’s reputation as an alchemy prodigy had caught a little bit of attention in the market, so it made sense that Yu Ke’er knew about it.
However, Yu Ke’er still found it hard to believe. How could Su Yu, with his limited cultivation, possibly be a top-tier first-level Alchemist?
Su Yu just smiled, “Miss Yu, do you need something from me?”
Seeing Su Yu deflect, Yu Ke’er couldn’t help but snort, “I want Spirit Enthralling
Liquor, ten bottles. But your prices are too high, you have to give me a discount.”
Ten bottles of Spirit Enthralling Liquor? Su Yu’s expression became serious; what did the Yu Family need so much Spirit Enthralling Liquor for?
After thinking for a moment,
Su Yu gave Yu Ke’er a twenty percent discount, one hundred and sixty lower grade spirit stones a bottle. Before, Yu Ke’er had given him a Token to the Yunshan auction. Thanks to that, the Su Family had gotten their hands on a Foundation Establishment Pill.
The Fifth Elder had advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm as a result. This favor needed to be repaid.
“Do you offer twenty percent off for other elixirs too?” A glint of mischief flickered in Yu Ke’er’s eyes as she handed over a list to Su Yu: “These are the elixirs our Yu Family needs. How many can you provide?”
Su Yu took the list and was taken aback.
The amount listed would probably keep the Pill Pavilion busy for a year.
Su Yu looked at Yu Ke’er in shock: “Miss Yu, your family needs this many elixirs?”
Yu Ke’er hesitated for a moment, then looked back at the bustling crowd outside the Pill Pavilion; she decided to transmit her voice: “Recently many demonic cultivators have appeared, and two cultivation families have been wiped out because of this.”
“That demonic cultivator from last time, the person who stole the incomplete superior magic artifact, the Blood Saber Daoist, has recently shown up at the Eight Demons Ridge.”
“He’s even openly challenged the Yunjian Sect, threatening them to give up their inheritance, or they will soon regret it.”
Hiss!
This news was explosive.
Eight Demons Ridge!?
A cold sweat broke out on Su Yu’s back, his heart pounding.
Thank goodness!
Thank goodness he hadn’t tried to find out any secrets from the Eight Demons Ridge.
Otherwise, the Blood Saber Daoist would likely be hunting not the Yunjian Sect but him, Su Yu, or the Su Family right now!
With the current strength of the Su Family, they would be no match for the Blood Saber Daoist.
Yu Ke’er blinked her eyes, satisfied to see the carefree expression on Su Yu’s face finally change, and even a trace of fear appeared. She chirped, thinking herself superior, pretending to be deep in front of me.
Now you know to be afraid, huh?
Yu Ke’er slapped Su Yu’s shoulder, “Don’t worry, I’ve got your back.”
“Staying in the market will keep you safe.”
“Check this list of elixirs, if you can produce them, we will give you all the business.”
Su Yu’s face turned peculiar, and he quickly stepped back, looking at the young woman pretending to be an older sister, he said: “The quantity needed is very large, a twenty percent discount won’t be possible. But how about a ten percent discount, as a repayment for the favor you did at the auction.”
“A favor?”
Yu Ke’er blinked, looking at Su Yu’s serious face, she chuckled and nodded,
“Not bad, not bad, ten percent it is.”
Su Yu added: “I think it will take about a year to fulfill all orders.”
Yu Ke’er nodded, “That’s fine, just deliver once a month. I will be staying in the market, and you can deliver the elixirs to me.”
He kept calling her sister, but in fact, judging by Yu Ke’er’s life aura, she should be almost a year younger than him.
This guy likes playing the bossy sister!
After discussing with Su Yu, Yu Ke’er left a whopping three thousand low-grade Spirit Stone deposits before leaving.
Because of what Yu Ke’er said, Su Yu began to pay attention to the changes in the market outside. In addition to pills, talismans, formations, magic artifacts, and so on, all began to sell well, especially pills and talismans, which were all sold out.
Su Family’s Dan Pavilion only kept a small portion of the pills for daily sales, and the rest had been booked by the Yu Family, including the Mind Confusing
Liquid.
The Yu Family’s order at Su Family’s Dan Pavilion was worth nearly ten thousand low-grade Spirit Stones!
Subtracting cost, the Su Family’s profit could be at least four thousand low-grade Spirit Stones.
The incident of the Blood Blade Taoist threatening the Yunjian Sect caused much chaos and discussion among the cultivators in the market.
At the same time, the appearance of those in the robber cultivation and demonic cultivation also made many cultivators and cultivation families nervous.
This was the fundamental reason for the selling out of pills, talismans, formations, etc.
“One mere Foundation Establishment Realm demonic cultivator, the Yunjian Sect should be able to withstand it.” After noticing the commotion outside, Su Yu firmly decided not to go out.
However, because of the presence of demonic cultivators and robbers, the price of talismans outside had skyrocketed.
Looking at the price change, Su Yu was quite envious. With his cultivation getting higher and higher, especially after his Body Refinement Realm rose to the seventh level, the resources he now needed for cultivation almost doubled.
He had a huge demand for demon beast blood essence. Only the blood essence of a peak rank one late-stage demon beast could satisfy him.
If it continues like this, he estimates that he will need the blood of a rank two demon beast in the future.
The threat brought by the demonic people and robber cultivators this time might be an opportunity for him to accumulate cultivation resources.
Therefore, after each day’s routine cultivation, apart from refining pills for the Yu family, Su Yu spent all his free time drawing talismans.
He drew middle and high-grade rank one talismans.
He also didn’t sell them at the Dan Pavilion, but instead quietly sold them to other businesses to supply them.
The fact that he was a master of high-grade rank one talismans, apart from the few people in the Su Family, no one else knew, and he didn’t plan to expose it.
Time flew by, and several months passed in the blink of an eye.
The Yunshan Market auction was held again, attracting even more cultivators to attend. Yu Ke’er even sent an auction invitation, but neither Su Yu nor Su Yun chose to go.
After all, on the previous auction, the Blood Blade Taoist had fought and robbed, and was still able to come and go freely.
They both were a bit… well, cautious, definitely not fearful.
So, in the end, Su Jingbang, who came to the market to deliver spiritual medicines, took some Su Family cultivators who had never been to the auction before with him.
Su Yu didn’t partake in the auction, but he secretly sent ten ‘Fire Dragon Talismans’ of high-quality rank one for auction.
It was a high-grade rank one talisman he had recently comprehended, modeled after the ancient talisman, Fire Dragon Talisman.
Its power was great. Although it couldn’t match the speed and armor piercing power of the Fire Cloud Arrow talisman, the Fire Dragon Talisman had greater power and more ferocity. In general, they had their own merits.
These ten high-quality rank one ‘Fire Dragon Talismans’ surprisingly sold for a high price of one thousand and one hundred low-grade Spirit Stones at the auction!
That was a full thirty to forty percent higher than before!
And Su Jingbang and the others also returned from the auction with satisfying results, they surprisingly managed to take down two types of core ingredients for Refining Foundation Establishment Pills for the family.
Although it cost nearly two thousand low-grade Spirit Stones and was somewhat inflated, it was still worth it to a small family like the Su Family.
The Su Family was willing to spend this money for the chance of reaching Foundation Establishment.
After all, except for the auction channel, it would be very difficult for them to collect the ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pills. It would consume time, effort, and energy, without any guarantee of success..
